Black Rhino Wheels - Press Releases

Black Rhino Wheels, part of the TSW family of specialized wheel manufacturers, will exhibit new Truck Rims in Las Vegas November 5-8, 2013.

Huntington Beach, CA October 31, 2013

Black Rhino Wheels, in conjunction with its parent, TSW Alloy Wheels, announced today that it will be introducing three new truck wheels and off road wheels in the TSW booth at the SEMA automotive specialty products trade show at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada on November 5 through 8, 2013. The TSW booth, #43131, is in the SEMA wheels pavilion.

Black Rhino Wheels designs, engineers and manufactures aftermarket wheels for trucks and SUV's. The SEMA introductions increase the breadth of its product line of wheels for offroad trucks and lifted trucks and street-ready truck and SUV wheels. Black Rhino segments its product lineup as wheels designed to complement the rugged off-road attitude of lifted trucks and SUVs and equally tough looking custom truck wheels for more street friendly applications. The first group features a negative offset of 12 mm while the second classification is defined by a positive offset of 12 mm.

“Lifted trucks, SUVs and off-road vehicles place extraordinary demands on their wheels and Black Rhino wheels are built to take the punishment” pointed out TSW president Terence Scheckter. “For street warrior types, our truck wheels evoke the off-road ethos in town or on the road,” Scheckter added.

The truck wheels include the Everest 5-spoke wheel, the Lataba 12-spoke wheel and the Sierra multispoke truck and offroad rims. The Black Rhino wheels are engineered to carry the heavy loads often associated with Trucks and SUV's. All truck rims are either hub centric or supplied with centering rings to ensure a smooth vibration free ride. The wheels come in a variety of 17, 18, 20 and 22 inch sizes in a variety of finishes - Matte Black, Gloss Black with Machine, Matte Black with Matte Machine, 5,6 or 8 Lug, to ensure 100% compatibility with the target vehicles requirements.

Scheckter also pointed out that Black Rhino Wheels are available in a wide range of staggered wheel fitments. A staggered fitment basically means deploying larger wheels on the back of a vehicle than in the front, for example 19x8 on the front and 19x9.5 on the rear. Running wider rims on the drive wheels means more grip in both off-the-line and lateral acceleration. Complete size and other technical details for the entire Black Rhino Wheels family of truck rims can be found at the online fitment guide.
